Honestly crying about hexbear is more a problem than them
I don’t follow, can you clarify please?
I mean that I feel more people complain about how bad hexbear is than I ever encounter. Either I’m in the wrong subs or they’re tamer than people believe.
You think it’s a good thing that new people looking to join Lemmy are directed towards Hexbear (or Lemmygrad or even ML)?
Be honest.
As another user stated it’s random.
As I said, be honest.
Okay bud, I’ve given two answers. Byeee
I just don’t find hexbear as a whole to be that objectionable. They defederated from everyone for a while during their whole DNS debacle, and I missed them! It’s a very active instance that posts a lot of news and memes.
And if we’re basing this on which instances have more annoying users, well I have a lot more users from discuss.tchncs.de blocked than hexbear. Not to call them out either, but I think it’s… intolerant to act like a whole instance is poison because their standards and rules allow for types of people I don’t want to interact with. Obviously stuff like CSAM or Nazi shit is a red line, but if some users having objectionable politics is grounds for ostracizing an instance, how has lemmy.world survived this long?
Objectionable politics
“Anybody who’s more moderate than a Marxist-Leninist is a liberal and deserves to be shot”
Hexbear is as bad as 4chan, but with tankies instead of alt-right, normalising radical political views
99% of online Tankies promote fascist positions, but pretend to be “left” so as to present as more palatable to left-leaning “normies” dissatisfied with the state of democracy.
It’s random 🤷
I don’t consider this acceptable simply because it happens randomly.
What would your solution be to this intolerable situation for you where leftists are allowed to… checks notes …randomly be visible on the internet?
There is a difference between leftists and genocide white-washing, pro-authoritarianism tankies.
Til they’re pro what’s happening in Gaza.
Because Gaza is the only thing happening in the world right now!
It is currently most active and visible one.
